While on Facetime with Grammy and Opa today we decided to open the kids Christmas gifts early...and man was that such a good idea, haha! They have been playing with them happily for the last 6 hours. Nice job, Grammy and Opa! Cora and Layla got the jackpot of Barbies: a house, furniture, barbies, clothes, shoes, accessories, a car...and on an on. It's a massive hit. Finn got a telescope, and the first thing he said when he looked through it was "I can see PLUTO!" So, that must be an amazingly powerful telescope you got there, Grammy. ;)

While we were opening gifts, Jonas opened his gift from Scooter. It was an Amaon Echo Dot. The kids were THRILLED. I mean, Jonas and I like it too, but the kids went wild. Now we have all sorts of new rules in the Schaefer house:
1. No yelling at Alexa.
2. No asking Alexa to play the poopy song.
3. You can only ask Alexa to tell you a joke AFTER Mama is done listening to her music.
and on, and on. Haha! Good times, folks! Fun for sure. :)
